The Groundhog Day Experiment
A New Video Series to Improve your Life one Day at a Time
Groundhog Day is the most Transformative movie ever made
After more than 35 years experience as an organisational psychologist, coach, consultant, academic, author and entrepreneur I have never found a better story than Groundhog Day for demonstrating how we should live.
Like Phil Connors in the movie, millions of people feel trapped and like Phil you too can escape your own loops, find freedom and feel more alive and joyful than you ever imagined. You don't need to change where you live, what work you do or who you are with. You need to shift your mindset
Every morning you are given another ordinary day. The Groundhog Day experiment is not to wait for a better life, but to discover how much of a better life is already hidden inside your life today.
That, to me, is the deepest psychological and spiritual lesson of Groundhog Day. It is also what makes the programme distinctive. It is not primarily about self-improvement or productivity; it is about transforming the lived experience of an ordinary day through dozens of almost invisible choices.
The Wisdom of Groundhog Day
The new program is based on Paul's Sunday Times bestseller The Wisdom of Groundhog Day enhanced by his work with thousands of people over 35 years, and several highly successful mental health programs applying the latest best practice from psychology, neuroscience and wellbeing.
The Groundhog Day Experiment
I want to help you take the same transformative journey that Phil did in Punxsutawney on the ever-repeating February 2. This is a shift from sleepwalking through your days to being fully present. From postponing your happiness to experiencing it today. From always looking for what's next to appreciating what you already have. From performing a role to being authentic. From self absorption to service.
And like Phil you will make these shifts, and many more, by performing practical experiments each day. Each day you will test new approaches, observe, evaluate, learn and grow through trial and error. After a few weeks of small, consistent actions you will notice big improvements.
